EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a pivotal moment in history, showcasing the fearless Tipu Sultan, also known as Tippu Sahib, Sultan of Mysore. The son of Hyder Ali, Tipu Sultan was a formidable commander who fought valiantly against the British and Marathas during his reign from 1749 to 1799.
In this particular image taken at Pollilur in 1780, we see Tipu Sultan leading his army to victory over the British forces under Baille. His strategic prowess and unwavering determination are evident as he sits atop an elephant in full regalia, ready to defend his kingdom against all odds.
The intricate details of the howdah on the elephant and the ornate attire worn by Tipu Sultan speak volumes about his status as royalty and his dedication to protecting his people. This historical moment captured in time serves as a reminder of Tipu Sultan's legacy as a brave warrior who never backed down from a challenge.
As we gaze upon this powerful image, we are transported back to a time when battles were fought with honor and courage. Tipu Sultan's triumph at Pollilur is immortalized in this photograph, serving as a testament to his indomitable spirit and unwavering commitment to defending Mysore from foreign invaders.
